The National Hockey League has banned hockey players from aggressor countries from taking home the trophy.
Hockey players from Russia and Belarus will not be able to take home the Stanley Cup as long as the leadership of the aggressor countries does not prevent a military invasion of Ukraine. This decision was made by the leadership of the National Hockey League.
Remember that there is a tradition in the league, according to which each player of the team that becomes champion receives a trophy at his disposal for one day and can present it to his fans, and during the summer hockey players travel with the cup.
This time, Colorado and Tampa Bay met in the final. Both teams had Russian athletes who personally explained that they could not take home the Cup due to the actions of the Kremlin leadership.
